Savina Stoitsova, an epidemiologist at the National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, has told BTV that 37 out of every 100,000 people in this country are infected.

According to her, there are also areas where the carriers of the coronavirus are 60 per 100,000. It all depends on compliance with anti-epidemic measures and whether there would be events where many people gather in small spaces.

Therefore, wearing masks now makes sense and measures in schools are correct, according to the epidemiologist.
